Hi,
Is there a policy or unwritten rules about which strings should be
translated? (That is wrapped with the N_() macro) I've done a basic
search, but haven't found anything.
Looking in cryptodisk.c, it looks like grub_error() strings are not
wrapped, unless they fall in a GRUB_UTIL ifdef. But in diskfilter.c,
they are both wrapped and not outside of such an ifdef block. Also, it
looks like grub_dprintf strings are never wrapped.
If the current state is that there is no consistency, what *should* the
policy be? Should every grub_error() and grub_dprintf() string be
wrapped? It seems right that every string shown to the user during
normal operation should be wrapped.
